This generous donation was facilitated by Elena Novikova, provided by Taro Pharmaceuticals, organized by Charita Shteynberg (founder of World of Connections, a liaison service for nonprofit organizations that acquired much of the supplies from hospitals and nonprofits), and accepted under Dr. Bratslavsky's medical license.
